Oh really? So on November 22nd everyone in Europe can walk into a store and buy a console off the shelf (while stocks last) or receive their locally reordered unit within days of launch? Everyone in hong Kong and Japan can also do the same in 2013 and the whole tier 2 zoning getting it next year instead was just a tongue in cheek move by Microsoft? Well in that case it's a worldwide launch.
If a product cannot be purchased on the same day by everyone irrespectively of location, then by simply logic, it is not worldwide, unless of course you're one of those 'america is all that matters' types.
That doesn't in any way mean the system sucks or that I don't have one preordered for dr3 too but let's keep a little reality going here, I can't release a game and send it only to a few counties in Europe and america and call it worldwide because its both wrong and disrespectful to the countries that will be getting it but won't at the same time as everyone else, its a 'oh you think you don't matter? We don't really consider you a part of the world anyway'.
You can call it not picking, I'm excited as much as anyone else here about the consoles coming out and the games coming for my dusty wiiu, but when you bend reality you just give ammunition to the haters for no reason. |
It will be a Worldwide launch it is not false information,as a worldwide launch implies that it is spread troughout the world. If i went with that line of thought then nobody is available in 200+ countries so no one is available Worldwide.
Honestly it is more disrespectefull if xbox live or psn didnt work correctly in a launch country if ms isnt shipping to other countries it is because they cant or arent ready to support it... but if people are really that eager to buy one use Amazon,the sistem is not region-locked.
